Month 3 update. Is there such a thing a trying too hard? I sort of feel like I have taken a step backwards insted of forward. Like I am trying to force something to happen rather than relaxing and just taking photos. Kind of hard to explain using a keyboard.

My problem is I get static and don't see improvements, or my images, to me, look the the same as the last shoot. That bothers me to no end...

I just force myself to look at the image differently, in another position. It happens...

But the images you have just posted are very different from anything you've posted before.

My challenge has been to shoot moving objects like birds or animals. That has given me a challenge. I just got back from Peru and had the opportunity to visit the Corca Canyon. It's the deepest canyon in the world and condors ride the air thermals up. I got lucky and was able to shoot four condors over a two hour period. But I've been real busy catching up with the office work so I haven't had time to even peruse the images, but I know I got some good ones.

Anyway, just find challenges to improve. That's the fun of it.
